Cigar ReviewCohiba Piramides is a Cuban cigar that isn't particularly 'Cohiban', nor is it typically Cuban. The construction of this Habano is outstanding, however the cigar wrapper is not the usual thrice-fermented Cohiba style, but rather the '2nd generation' of the 2 year-old dark reddish-brown special edition cigar wrappers.
The Cohiba Pyramid cigar burns very evenly, a testament to its superior Habano construction. It is medium in body, not strong, with much spice and pepper tones, and a touch of leather and chocolate notes. Further on the piramide becomes slightly acidic on the lips, and showed other signs of youth, meaning this Cuban cigar will improve with ageing. In six months to 2 years, this Cohiba Piramide cigar may well become a highly unique Cuban cigar with unusual brand characteristics, and prized for its rarity considering the limited availability.

The Cohiba cigar brand was introduced only in 1968. Cohiba quickly became the flagship cigar brand of the Cuban cigar industry. Cohiba was developed in the beginning as a medium bodied protocol cigar for presentation only by officials of the Cuban government, but Cohiba cigars were marketed widely beginning in 1982. The initial Cohiba cigar sizes were the Lancero, the Corona Especial and the Panetela, with the Cohiba Esplendido, Cohiba Robusto and Cohiba Exquisito added in 1989. In 1992, for the 500th anniversary of Columbus' discovery of the Caribbean, the Cohiba Siglo series were introduced. The Cohiba cigars were initially made in the El Laguito factory in Havana, Cuba, but production is now also done in the Fernando Perez German factory. Click here for more Cohiba cigar history!
